Hmm, looks like there might be a problem evaluating the version.pm code we embed within M::B::Version. Could you try this patch, which might shed some light on the issue? ================================ --- lib/Module/Build/Version.pm (revision 1976) +++ lib/Module/Build/Version.pm (local) @@ -25,9 +25,9 @@ # but we eval them in reverse order since version depends on # version::vpp to already exist - eval $vpp; + eval $vpp; die $@ if $@; $INC{'version/vpp.pm'} = 'inside Module::Build::Version'; - eval $version; + eval $version; die $@ if $@; $INC{'version.pm'} = 'inside Module::Build::Version'; } ================================ Also, do you have version.pm installed on your machine? -Ken

Hi Ken, unfortunately, I can no longer replicate the error with the slightly older version installed without any changes. Sorry. R. Ken_Williams via RT wrote: Show quoted text

No problem, I'll close the ticket now and we can re-examine it if someone else reports the same issue. -Ken
